Nice to see the judges involved in the group dance again. It's always good to see them interacting with the professionals on the stage.

Just wanted to show some appreciation for the singer here - Natalie May Paris

[@leeallen225]

Brilliant dance but let's take a moment to appreciate this band!!!!

[@lostsinthepages]

the singer of this particular one was Natalie May Paris who is an incredible west end performer :)

[@markusschmidt7513]

The millisecond in which Motsi flirts with the camera :-) - And in general the whole choreography: Absolutely brilliant!

Another sadly missed opportunity to feature the beating heart of the ballroom, its Mighty Wurlitzer, which has become the soundtrack of Blackpool and synonymous with the British seaside.

Karen looked so happy to be dancing with Anton again. Also, I’m getting kind of sick of the same four to six people being front and center. They have sixteen incredible dancers. Let’s mix it up once in a while!

[@stephenguppy7882]

Why did it take almost a week to post this?

[@maxbainbridge8130]

I guess they just didn’t want to post this the same day of the couple dances

[@ajrein4226]

finally

[@beautifulenoughforme]

Anton lifting Karen at the end...what?!!! 🤯

[@greenhaven22]

I don’t get why the show stopped regularly having same-gendered pro pairs in the group dances. There are so many pros that if you just had one male pair and one female pair they would still have like 80% mixed gender pairs in each dance. And the pros could take turns being in the same gender pairs if they were concerned about being typecasted. It just sucks that the show went down the road of being more representative of society in this way and then just stopped.

The doormen were dancing together, and one of them was dancing with another male pro after they switched partners (Gorka?).
